Reduces code duplication, and the resulting potential for inconsistency. - * generic/tclObj.c: Re-ordered error detection code so all values - with trailing garbage receive a "not an integer" message instead of - an "integer too large" message. - Removed inactive code meant to deal with strtoul* routines that fail - to parse leading signs.
